Some CuriOsities Of Everyday Life.

Phlilp u Hubert, Jr., In The Epoch.
a student Of our social customs who has been
writing about coat tails asks: OF what good are
these coat tails? Why should there be any such
absurd separation at the back OF the coat, which
affords useful purpose and actually defeats the
very purpose for which the coat was made name
ly, to cover us up and keep us warm? Ask tailor
why he sew5 two but,vhS on the back OF mans
coat and he Will stare in blank amazement and
answer that he has been taught to do so all his
life. ASK ninety men out OF hundred why those
buttons are there and they will be equally in the
dark. The custom or course IS survival from the
lays when swords were worn; the two buttons at
the back were used to support the sword belt.
This curiosity recalls the Empress OF Russia's
v1Olet-bed. Some 20 years ago. the Tsar noticed
that soldiers paced every day up and down a Ger
tain walk In the Winter Garden, going just SO far
Kept up night and day, winter and summer, and
the Tsar had the curiosity to ask the soldier why
he went SO many 100 feet into the garden and then
returned. The man didn't know. The officer in
command was next questioned. He didn't know;
the order was that such guard should be estab-
lShed and 1t had been SO for years. The Oficer Of
the palace were next sought, and then some OF the
higher army olicers The question became inter-
esting, and the Tsar was determined to ind out
why Que Of his soldiers was compelled to walk up
and down a certain walk of the garden, year after
year, for no ascerlainable purpose Finally, by
Ierrng back to records OF 20 years before, it was
discovered that toward the end OF the last century
the Empress Catharine had received from England
present OF some very rare vlolets which were
pldhltu III certain Deu III oIder 10 prevent Inc
flowers being disturbed q soldier was detailed to
walk up and down in front or that bed night and
day. The flowers had died, but for 20 years
soldier had kept Oh walking up and down in front
OF the bed where they had been.
When the Russian Grand Duke Alexis was here
fifteen years ago he found one evening upon
dressing for ball given In his honor at our
Academy that his white neck-ties had been mis-
laid 1t was too late to send out for more, and so
he wore black tie. Not a fortnight had elapsed
before half or the young men OF New York had
abandoned white ties for evening dress in favor OF
black ones, and It was not until the following
winter that the fashion passed away
In much the same way the ulster became fash
ionable: The Prince OF Wales on one occasion
could not find the coat that he wanted, and was
obliged to wear his Irish ulster to the opera.
Should His Royal Highness begin his dinner with
coffee and end with oysters or go to balls without
neck-tie, 1t would not be long before certain

FROM the Liverpool Courier.
One fact revealed by Mr. GOSchen is very inter-
esting. There were, he stated, % persons in Eng
land with an income over 100000. 1t is almost
impossible for ordinary people to understand what
that income means. 1t is at thousand week; it is
more than c14O day; 1t is nearly as possible CO
an hour. A man with more than csc, 600 a year can
spend ten-pound note whenever the clock strikes
during what may be called his working hours, and
he Will only be living up TO his income. He is not
beyond what one would imagine would be personal
convenience. The fact that there are nearly 100
such persons in England is OF the greatest interest
one would like to have Mr.. GOSchen'S list Of Them
or, better still, TO appoint royal commission to
investigate the use which they make OF their
money
